pharmaceuticals

Well, any self-respecting professional drug user (?) is bound to have times when stocks of the Good Stuff (TM) runs low, and those times usually coincides with the experimentation of combinations of inferior (but available) pharmaceuticals with potential in the hopes of catching a high that exceeds the sum of its parts. I like to call this doing the “Sum of Parts” combo a.k.a. riding the potentiating effects of pharmaceutical stacking.

This is one of the right combinations.

Baclofen is marketed as Lioresal and is prescribed as a muscle relaxant. However, the drug use community has found out that baclofen [sixthseal.com] could be a possible Gamma hydroxybutyrate (GHB) analog in higher-than-prescribed doses which I have documented in the link above due to the GABA (B) agonist properties.

I finally tracked down the elusive blister packs of Lioresal and used to have a whole stash of them before the police raided my place and carted away anything that resembles pills or capsules but I managed to find one last blister pack deep down in my stash box – it was caught between the cardboard and thus was missed by the raiding party. I know – it’s sad.

The baclofen is similar to the tablets that I have sourced before except this comes in the proper blister packaging. There is the familiar CG/K|J imprint on the pills and the brand name is Liorésal 10 mg. I had a full blister pack of this which makes it 100 mg.

I also managed to obtain 30 tablets of zopiclone (Imovane) in the form of 7.5 mg generic tablets from the pharmaceutical giant APO. I have also written about zopiclone [sixthseal.com] back in 2003 when I didn’t have an opiate habit (had a methamphetamine habit instead) and my benzodiazepine tolerance/dependence wasn’t quite as large as it is right now (it just keeps getting higher).

Zopiclone isn’t hard to obtain coz my doctor already prescribes me a generous maintenance benzodiazepine course – 3 x 2 mg Rivotril (clonazepam), 4 x 15 mg Dormicum (midazolam) and 10 x 0.5 mg Xanax (alprazolam) daily so I just casually mentioned zopiclone and he just gave it to me, albeit with a rather strange spoken postscript – “Don’t inject it, ah”.

I think he knew I was desperate that night to get off and since I couldn’t score opiates off him, he probably figured I was going to get fucked up anyway, one way or the other.

(For the record, he was cleaned out – three 500 tablet DF-118 bottles was polished off by three patients in two months – and as luck would have it, the patients were named me, myself, and I, so you can imagine the implications behind that if anyone found out. To order more is to court disaster and risk questions about prescribing policies and would necessitate the second “disappearance” of my medical record should it be known that a single patient consumed that amount of DF-118 dihydrocodeine 30 mg with the willing participation of the said doctor. It would be useless to tell “them” that he justified his actions as a healthcare provider genuinely interested in my well being by getting me off street drugs and giving me a local harm reduction option in lieu of methadone replacement therapy in KL. The same thing happened about a year back and my medical record went “missing” to start me on a clean slate and to protect him from justifying prescriptions of certain controlled pharmaceuticals which some third-party observers might find excessive, but was actually necessary for your safety since I was using methamphetamine abusively then and was prone to aggression during meth induced psychosis and needed to be heavily sedated with large amount of benzodiazepines for public interest. I think one nurse was fired over that for “sloppy record keeping” and I still miss her to this day. I’m sorry you had to take the fall for us. Take care and Godspeed, wherever you are.) Combination dosage:
(Caution: This is not a dosage guide!)

Prior consumed pharmaceuticals:Prozac (fluoxetine) :40 mg (morning)
Benzodiazepines: Various (clonazepam 6 mg, alprazolam 4 mg and lorazepam 2 mg) throughout the day

“Sum of Parts” Dose:
Baclofen: 100 mg
Zopiclone: 225 mg
Tramadol: 400 mg
(and)
Dormicum (midazolam): 150 mg

I took 100 mg of baclofen and washed it down with 20 tablets of 7.5 mg zopiclone (don’t try this at home) and it felt good – it was better than the sum of its parts. I was full of serotonin for some reason, really happy, laughing, slurring my words and disinhibited. It was really good for 2 hours before a noticeable plateau so I took tramadol to boost it up again and it was great. It’s a really chatty disinhibited happy feeling, with a lot of slurring and anterograde amnesia (which is really quite fun while out, I would be talking and my friends couldn’t make sense of me with the slurring, and I would forget things in the middle of sentences which is quite amusing really).

There is an unusual amount of drug-seeking behavior (well, more than usual anyway :p) while on this combination – I kept on seeking more things to get me up, and I took the rest of the zopiclone (225 mg in all – the entire 30 tablets) and several benzodiazepines that I was carrying around with me (clonazepam and alprazolam – unknown amount). I can’t remember exactly what I took, but a friend had to stop me from popping pills and apparently I kept insisting that I was alright, but she got concerned anyway.

It was a blur for the next three hours (five hours from starting dose) before I got home and went straight to my prescription meds and gobbled down a full blister pack of Dormicum (midazolam) 15 mg. 10 tablets of Dormicum at once. I don’t remember much after that but apparently I decided to sleep at some point (that I remember) and left everything running and woke up to glaring lights and music at about 11 pm – a seven hour sleep.

I didn’t feel bad the next day, unlike the massive headache and excessive sleeping I encountered the first time I took baclofen (have taken more recreationally since then) but in hindsight, I took a lot of benzodiazepines and other hypnotics that night and while I was still aware of what I was doing, I could have overdosed if I hadn’t taken the strip of Dormicum 15 mgs which knocked me out.

I would probably still be fiending and trying to get more out of the “Sum of Parts” and take more benzos or mistake the Panadeine (500 mg paracetamol/APAP with 8 mg codeine) for Paralgin Forte (300 mg paracetamol/APAP with 30 mg codeine) or worse, didn’t give a flying fuck either way and grabbed fistfuls and swallowed it anyway (Panadeine is the devil coz paracetamol/APAP is Satan).
(Paralgin Forte is alright though if you can’t get any opiate only preparations)

It should be noted that 150 mg of Dormicum (midazolam) with the other benzodiazepines would be considered excessive to a benzodiazepine naïve person and could lead to an overdose in non-benzodiazepine tolerant people. I have taken larger amounts of Dormicum before since (therefore? – Cause and Causation) I’m desensitized to it, so I have to repeat – this is not a dosage guide.

The sum of the pharmaceutical combination is greater than the parts though, for what it’s worth. 😉

…but it’s also a dirty, desperate attempt to get off and for that price (the price of the pharmaceuticals) you can catch a better high though non-pharmaceutical substances. Only for the desperate (in my defense, I was doing it to stave off opiate withdrawals :p) with no other better substances or those who has miscellaneous pharmaceuticals with potential lying around at home.

For what it’s worth, it feels like low dose MDMA, and I could have gotten Ecstasy tablets instead…except I don’t do e anymore, unless it’s for a worthy cause (or with the right people) coz the day after serotonin depletion effect exacerbates my depression.

Speaking of opiates, it seems that the Malaysian government has decided to take DF-118 and other opiate containing preparations off the market slowly and leaving only morphine and fentanyl for palliative care patients so stock up while you can. It seems to be true, from the trends in the industry and more importantly, coz a beautiful angel told me so (she’s right, trust me, coz she’s a divine being and thus cannot be wrong, or it would violate the fundamental omniscience basis of most religions).

I’m sending out a team of my protégés (two male and one female) to obtain as much opiate preparations as they can coz I am unable to get prescriptions filled anymore due to pushing my luck once too many at the various medical establishments over here (and also due to general no-go red flags on my good name and the medical records it is associated with due to rampant documentation of my activities on this blog and the inevitable word of mouth mechanism creating sixthseal.com awareness amongst the medical fraternity and my reputable name along with it).

I am now limiting my doctor shopping activities to a couple of select doctors who are blissfully unaware of the existence of this blog or its connection to me (Why do you think I never put up another huge picture in the About Me page? That’s what the Narcotics police printed out in full color glossy A4 sized glory along with the more incriminating parts of my blog when they arrested me at my office so I’m not going to repeat that mistake. You have to search for photos now.) and I have a couple of solid links with dihydrocodeine 30 mg (just got 84 tablets off one doctor for a “slipped disc”).

My protégés are going to do most of my opiate doctor shopping for me now, since they’re “clean” (no prior records) and they’re actually getting quite good (one guy and one girl have successfully obtained DF-118, Paralgin Forte and DF-118, generic dihydrocodeine 30 mg, and morphine respectively) with a bit of my guidance, and they’re all presenting different ailments and are unaware of each other and don’t take opiates themselves which is a Good Thing (TM) coz you never ask an opiate user to score for you. It’ll just end up consumed. 😉

I’m offering them different terms too – one is new, one is swapping the opiates he gets for my benzodiazepines as a favor, and one is just doing it coz she can (and coz I reimburse the price of the consultation + medication for both hits and misses) but I do get a little concerned about the methods employed by the last one – the morphine was boosted in a CCTV covered area – but I must admit, she’s good at it, probably coz you’re so klepto. :p Oh, which reminds me, she’s doing it coz she owes me anyway, I saved her ass when she boosted some articles from MNG and she had to call me and I had to pay her way out so they don’t call the cops. I love you all anyway. =D

Go forth, and make fishers of men!

(or something)

Hmm…I seem to have greatly deviated from the post subject. My apologies.

You know I’m spun when I write voluminous posts with lengthy asides and constant meanderings like this one. 😉
